Themes/Skins

Those outline/missing boxes should make it easy to spot.

We can go less than 10 if there aren't 10 that work adequately - I was really unimpressed with functionality when I installed and tried several.  Plans to get help fixing up (and making a SMACX theme) ended not amounting to anything.

One thing I want to achieve here, you know, is to get the number of themes I have to upload new images -like Shop items and new thread buttons- to over and over and over separately, manageable...

I use the Enterprise theme because it's relaxing - brighter themes hurt my eyes. But I don't like going as far as basic black because that can also have problems with readability or when some kinds of images are posted.

The only issue I have with Enterprise is that the pinned thread titles aren't readable without highlighting them so the words show up.

Is there any way to make a theme similar to the default, but just with different colors? I used to do that with Invision forums.

[Buster's Uncle]

I'm sure there is, but I don't know how.  You could PM Metaliturtle and try to talk him into learning, since he's expressed interest in .php coding.

Same theme in different color schemes is a great idea, mind; if Eadee reports as many as I suspect as unworkable, it would be a good idea for filling in the holes in the spectrum.

I've noticed the invisible stuff in Enterprise -right sidebar stuff's pretty bad, too- I'll go have a look in the Admin themes interface and see if I can find an easy fix...

Working and obvious differences to default theme.
Working but no significant difference to default theme.
Bugged or completely broken
-----------------------------------------
Halloween: red black and white. Shop and some other Buttons missing. Search button exists but is empty. "Home" doesn't fit the style and lacks a Link to the Forum.
StormFront v1: Wtf? okay, its violett and blue, didn't expect this. If you like the coloers you might enjoy it. Navigation is with fancy animated and moving icons but it lacks shop-button. "Home" looks even more messed up than in most Themes, doesn't fit the Theme BUT has a link to the forum.
Blue Eyes: Light Blue theme with black writing. It seems to have all buttons, even Shop.The Header Image says Bryan Deakin.com. To my suprise it looks usable AND different to the default.
Gone Fishin: Wooden planks and a lake in the background. Light blue. Seems to be working, though some Graphics seem to be a bit displaced.
Mevlana: Some Buttons missing, others are there but Images are missing. Beige with dark red background. Problems with "home" as in so many themes.
Sus: Same as Mevlana, just without dark red and completely beige.
Spectacular: Header says "popularFX" All Buttons seem to exist. but "Home" doesn't fit the theme (it has a link to the forum though). Light theme with blue and green accents.
Fire: Missing Buttons usual "Home"-Problem. Very dark brown colors with black writing, almost impossible to read.
XD-Zeda: Well, missing buttons, "home"-problem as usual. Besides that its a Black Theme with White writing, easy to read and scifi-like.
Astronomy: Seems to be working fine. Violett-blue theme but less aggressive than Stormfront v1. Even "home"-page works fine.

Is that everything?

I'm busy with Shop stuff, ATM, but reckon I'd better take a cursory look at everything myself before I purge -- I can probably fix the header and many graphics issues with files uploaded to the right places...

[Eadee]

Is that everything?

Nope, just 10 Themes. 40 more to go.

However can't test more themes because now I'm like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sagg08DrO5U

Moar!

[Eadee]

Moar!

I'll do it, but chances are good I'll need a "Gandalf Sax guy"-Smiley afterwards.

[Buster's Uncle]

Deal.  -The sooner the survey is complete, the greater my enthusiasm.

Teo'nun Laneti v1: Dark Theme with red accents. Some buttons missing (like shop for example). replies do not appear correctly, (its more like a reply in the OP, then a reply in a reply and so on). "home" problem as usual.
Bitti: Brownish colors. BUttons missing, others miss icons. "home" problem as usual
LCARS: Federation themed. Nearly impossible to read posts. Buttons missing.
GUL: Light Theme. Don't know how to describe the look properly, but buttons are missing anyways.
The Killing: dark blue (or maybe dark cyan) theme. Seems to be working fine
Crystal: Grey theme, easy to read, buttons missing. "Home"-Problem
Pulse: Dark theme similar colors to the Killing. but Front page completely broken. Buttons missing and stuff.
Cadence-MultiColor: Darky Cyan theme, Buttons are there comfortable to read. Icons and images a little bit displaced  (probably a problem of screen-resolution). Sadly "Home" is broken completely. Comes in Variants Red and Purple as well.
Catalysm: WoW-Theme, dark theme with light Scrolls as background for posts. Looks good, seems to be working.
Minecraft: bright theme with minecraft-graphics here and there. Works fine.
Black Ops: Dark Theme. Easy to read. Works fine.


I'll stop describing themes that are bugged anyways to speed things up.

[Buster's Uncle]

Details/reasoning are useful...

[Eadee]

Yeah, but its some kinda pointless to describe the colors of a theme if its broken anyways. I'll still describe the problems the theme has. But don't go into aestetics unless it works fine
